Patent CA-2601333-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ZIJLEMA TJAKKO
IPC: C30B15/00
Filed: 2006-03-24
Abstract: The invention relates to the manufacture of high purity silicon as a base material for the production of e.g. crystalline silicon solar cells. SiCU is converted to Si metal by contacting gaseous SiCU with liquid Zn, thereby obtaining a Si-bearing alloy and Zn-chloride, which is separated. The Si-bearing alloy is then purified at a temperature above the boiling point of Zn.  This process does not require complicated technologies and preserves the high purity of the SiCU towards the end product, as the only reactant is Zn, which can be obtained in very high purity grades and continuously recycled.

Inventor: LEE BIN
IPC: H04M11/06
Filed: 2006-03-16
Abstract: Existing and future standardized VDSL2 and other systems can be integrated into and used with a vectored DSLAM or other vectored or non-vectored DSL  system, without a new user disrupting service to other users in the same or a nearby binder, in some cases by using transmit power, CARMASK and/or PSDMASK  DSL capabilities to reduce both downstream and upstream training-signal levels so that training of a new DSL line is non- disruptive, despite a lack of knowledge of the pre-existing binder. For vectored systems, the crosstalk from that tone can be observed, learned and then added to the vectoring system so that any subsequent excitation on that tone would be eliminated by vector processing. A second tone then can be added in the same way, etc. In non-vectored DSLs that might be operating in a binder or line set, once these non-vectored lines are observed to be present, a vectored line set controller, such as a DSL optimizer, then can anticipate the potential interference from such non- vectored lines.

Abstract: A bushing (50) has an externally threaded portion (52) with a thread pitch P1. A collet body (20) has an internally threaded portion (31) with a thread pitch P2, which is smaller than P1 by a pitch differential, .DELTA.P. To assembly the bushing (50) and collet body (20), the collet body is heated relative to the bushing to reduce the .DELTA.P. The threaded portions (52, 31) of the bushing and collet body are then threadingly engaged with each other. The temperature of the bushing (50) and collet body (20) are then equalized, which tends to increase the .DELTA.P, which causes the threaded portions (52, 31) to bind with each other and resist relative loosening rotation. The threaded portions (52, 31) may additionally/alternatively be reverse tapered and/or include variable thread pitches that cause the threaded portions to further bind with each other.
